YouTube Shorts has released a brand new remix feature that allows creators to include short segments of videos in new content.
The feature is said to be very similar in nature to Stitch from TikTok. In addition, technical experts believe that this is best seen as extending the remix functionality of the application. In case you didn’t know yet, the creators were always free to take audio samples from different video locations and include them in Shorts posts.
With the new feature, users can expect to use a variety of YouTube videos for their remixes of default settings.
Meanwhile, the company has shed light on how users who do not want to add content from other areas should select the opt-out button, which is visible in YouTube Studio.
But remember that there is only one exception to the above rule. Any music video that contains copyrighted data from the platform’s audio partners cannot be used for remixes.
YouTube also outlines how the content in Shorts cannot be separated for remixing. This is very different from TikTok, which allows its users to stop others from sampling their videos by changing their privacy settings.
But Shorts creators have limited restrictions on where they are allowed to delete their own original content to help end audio taken from other Shorts. This will indirectly delete such short videos that have taken a sample of the content.
This is a very clear and detailed YouTube policy that shows how much has been invested in providing Shorts creators with a platform or community to grow and potentially expand. However, let’s not forget how aggressive it is when it comes to including everyone who makes videos on the Platform.
If you’re wondering how to use the new feature, well, it’s not too technical. Just click Create and then Crop, which are present in the Remix feature. And then from there, you’re allowed to try out a few video segments that are in the YouTube Shorts video section and can be used as one of your own.
So what does this mean for YouTube and how will it benefit the platform? Well, the answer is simple. This extension means giving so many Shorts creators access to billions of videos. It is also said to give the platform a new competitive advantage over Snapchat, Instagram’s Reels and even Spotlight. And remember, none of these apps have the popularity of uploading videos that YouTube has.
In addition to Shorts’ new remix add-on, YouTube also announced today that it plans to give creators more access to its Shorts player on other devices. This means that you can now enjoy the feature via your mobile network, desktop computer, and tablet.
In just a few weeks, creators will see the Shorts symbol on their homepage, followed by the Shorts tab. And once they find their video of their choice, they simply move it to Shorts functionality as they swipe vertically to see larger videos.
Last summer, YouTube announced how its Shorts Foundation was founded to encourage creators to make more visible and engaging short videos by the end of this year.
That is why every month the creators who meet the conditions for receiving payments receive them from this particular fund.
As for the pay scale, they can range between $ 100 and about $ 10,000 and are usually related to the views generated and the level of engagement received.
IOS users can expect to get access to Shorts’ new remix feature today, while those using Android would expect to see the release in the near future.
